"Milan" defender Riccardo Montolivo dismisses rumors that the club, strengthened by capable newcomers this summer, will compete for the Italian championship gold next season. Last year, the "rossoneri" were not very successful - the team finished only in tenth place in Serie A. However, despite the poor season, this summer Andrea Bertolacci, Carlos Bacca, and Luiz Adriano joined the team. "It is difficult to talk about a 'Milan' that would fight for the Scudetto," Montolivo said. "I don't think it's time for bold statements now, everything will be shown by the results. We need to talk less and do a lot of work." "We hope to be competitive next season. The training is going well." Montolivo also praised the new team coach Siniša Mihajlović.
